Maaan that one quote of Oppenheimer quoting the Bhagavad-Gita is OVERQUOTED. I expected better of you TPtI/IABD.

See, if you subtract the Rahi, then Tz'kes only has five powers if the people around him have a sum total of five powers. So, pretty much fair. Ish. Or close enough.

Y'know what, I can't change your mind just by TALKING about Superman. Read Kingdom Come. Superman retired for ten years when he thinks the public wants edgier anti-heroes instead of him, and then returns when the anti-heroes mess up, and there's PLENTY of moral ambiguity. Trust me.
